Contacts
A good pair of contacts on our eyes should go together Simon & Garfunkel, McCartney & Lennon, Sonny & Cher — you get where we’re going with this. To get that musical match between contacts and eyes, we analyze the best fit through a data-driven process.

Find the Perfect Fit
Contacts are medical devices and it can be a process to find the right fit with your optometrist. It might take more than one appointment to discover the perfect fit for your eyes — but it’s worth it.
Types of Contact Lenses
Specialty Contact Lenses
Specialty lenses are customized, crafted molds that give patients a high level of visual performance and comfort. One example is a scleral lens, which is used in situations where irregularities in the shape of the cornea make it virtually impossible to fit a standard lens. Another common option is orthok-k lenses, which are hard corneal molds worn at night. These gently reshape the cornea, providing clear vision for patients who struggle with myopia (nearsightedness), astigmatism, or a changing prescription.
Corneal Disease
Many ocular conditions can make it difficult to wear standard contacts. Those include: Keratoconus, Corneal scarring, Dry eye syndrome, Pellucid Marginal Degeneration, Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis (GPC), Post-LASIK, or other refractive procedure Astigmatism. Our eye doctors will check your eyes thoroughly to identify which specialty contact lenses will give you the best fit.
